Because in people's experience, LLMs are often correct.
You are right LLMs are not authoritative, but people trust it exactly because they often do produce correct answers.

I am curious why we still need PyPI to hold packages: it may be better to install from github.
Github provides much better integrated experience: source code, issues, docs, etc.

Really enjoyed this. A good introduction on (the REAL) cryptography.

Actually I myself cloned ChatSecure iOS, built it, and played it for a while. It's a nice app with elegant interface yet lacks push notification. If you plan to improve it, I would be happy to be a beta tester :-)
p.s. So honest is this app to explicitly state that I need to keep it foreground to receive new message from XMPP server.

Sure, push notification needs a central server. But guys, we so badly need a mobile IM that meets similar security standards as this project. Do it, and the world will honor you.
Should the central server be the only missing component of a reliable, secure-paranoid, mobile IM system, I would be happy donating some dollars.

Great work, but without mobile app & push notification it's just another IM over Tor.
